Who we are About Stripe Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses. Millions of companies - from the world’s largest enterprises to the most ambitious startups - use Stripe to accept payments, grow their revenue, and accelerate new business opportunities. Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead. That means you have an unprecedented opportunity to put the global economy within everyone's reach while doing the most important work of your career.
About
the team The Communications team builds Stripe’s brand and influence across the world. We’re looking for someone to join our small—but high-leverage—Corporate Communications team, which shapes and protects Stripe’s reputation across the financial, policy, and global business communities. What you’ll do We’re looking for an experienced communicator to build and lead a proactive corporate storytelling program. You will be the connective tissue across the business and policy audiences—building the campaigns, relationships, and moments that shape how Stripe is understood by the companies that rely on our products the most, and by those who write the rules of the economy Stripe is helping to build. You'll lead Stripe's most influential reputational programs globally: high-profile events, executive media and speaking opportunities, and proactive campaigns that demonstrate Stripe's economic impact. At the same time, you'll work closely with Stripe's policy team—advocating for improvements in financial policy and regulation, while also shaping our response to complex policy issues.
Responsibilities Demonstrate Stripe's economic impact. Build proactive corporate campaigns around Stripe’s role creating economic opportunity. Lead communications for high-profile events, executive interviews, and public appearances. Own Stripe's reputational storytelling globally. Design and execute programs that build Stripe's profile—and trust—among the core business audience as well as policymakers and the Washington press corps. Build the next chapter of Stripe's policy communications function. Partner closely with Stripe's policy team to develop a clear point-of-view on industry, regulatory, and policy-related topics, and amplify it through the right channels. Establish relationships with the right journalists and influencers in policy and tech; thought leaders in AI, crypto and tech policy; rapid response capabilities; and a well-tuned approach for navigating the full range of political and regulatory moments that arise in D.C. Provide executive counsel. Serve as a trusted advisor to senior executives on communications strategy. Bring clear judgment to ambiguous situations, help Stripe navigate the moments it didn't anticipate, and help it seize the ones it did.
Who you are We're looking for someone who meets the minimum
requirements to be considered for
the role. If you meet these
requirements, you are encouraged to apply. In recent years, our hiring has been 50/50 split between top comms pros and people without any such background, including several former founders. The preferred
qualifications are a
bonus, not a requirement. Minimum
requirements A superlative writer with a proven ability to create clear, compelling narratives around complex, high-stakes topics Exceptional judgment in ambiguous, high-pressure situations; able to operate with significant autonomy and make consequential decisions quickly Fluency in the tech media landscape—including an existing network of relationships with reporters, editors, and influencers in tech policy and business press Experience collaborating closely with policy, legal, and senior executive stakeholders Creative flair and an aversion to the hackneyed and obvious; a high bar for what a communications program can and should achieve An entrepreneurial streak; someone who is energized by the opportunity to build, not just manage Preferred
qualifications Demonstrated ability to design and execute proactive communications campaigns—not just respond to incoming A track record of building something from scratch—whether a comms function, a narrative program, or a public-facing campaign—and iterating on it over time A feel for independent media—Substack, podcasts, YouTube, influencers on X—and how to use these channels to reach and shape conversations among policymakers and thought leaders Hybrid work at Stripe This role is available either in an office or a remote location (35+ miles or 56+ km from a Stripe office). In-office expectations Office-assigned Stripes spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This hits a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility about how to do this in a way that makes sense for individuals and their teams. Working remotely at Stripe A remote location is defined as being 35 miles (56 kilometers) or more from one of our offices. While you would be welcome to come into the office for team/business meetings, on-sites, meet-ups, and events, our expectation is you would regularly work from home rather than a Stripe office. Stripe does not cover the cost of relocating to a remote location. We encourage you to apply for roles that match the location where you currently live or plan to live. Pay and

qualifications, and location. Applicants interested in this role and who are not located in the US may request the annual salary range for their location during the interview process. Additional

bonus or sales commissions/bonuses; 401(k) plan; medical, dental, and vision
